About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside The UPS Store and noticed an odd humming sound coming from inside. Curious, he opened the door—and found dozens of tiny bees buzzing around the mailboxes. Surprised but unfazed, the driver calmly closed the door and called his supervisor. Soon enough, a beekeeper arrived with his hive-gloves and smoke, gently removing the industrious insects. It turned out that one of the neighbors had accidentally released her swarm while cleaning her garden. As the bees were safely relocated, everyone laughed it off—another day at The UPS Store, where even bees know how to deliver packages.

2. A regular customer was printing out documents one afternoon when he heard a strange humming noise coming from inside the store's wall. Curious, he asked the staff if anyone else had noticed it. No one had. Soon enough, another customer—a delivery driver—walked in and joked, ‘Maybe that’s just how The UPS Store hums when they’re busy!’ Everyone laughed, and soon forgot about it. But every now and then, someone would still mention hearing that mysterious hum, and everyone would smile and nod knowingly.

3. Late one night, while closing up The UPS Store, the manager heard a soft humming coming from the back room. Curious, she peered inside and saw a small glowing orb floating above the shelves. As she watched, the little ball started spelling out messages in the air—‘Have a nice day!’ and ‘Thank you for using us!’ When it finished, it gently landed on an envelope and zoomed away into the night. The next morning, everyone joked that maybe their store had a secret admirer, but the manager knew better—it was just The UPS Store’s friendly ghost, making sure everything ran smoothly.

4. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside The UPS Store. Spotting something unusual on the loading dock, he bent down to investigate—only to discover a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper, labeled simply ‘To Whom It May Concern.’ Curious, he opened it carefully—and out popped a small note saying: 'Please hold my package until I come back.' Turns out, someone had accidentally left their package inside the store during closing time. Everyone had a good laugh over coffee the next day.
